Lock and Force: these functions can temporarily force the output to fixed values and also perform
high priority switching operations.
Scene management: - allows to save and recall a combination of state and values with a single
telegram.
Operating hours / Energy consumption counter: allows a limited tracking of energy consumption by
accumulating “On” period durations over time.
The most significant functional blocks are described in the following scheme.
Fig. 2 - Functional blocks
The above functions are mostly, but not all purely digital (i.e. related to an On-Off behaviour); for instance,
the scene management involves the definition of the brightness level associated with the scene. More details
can be found in the function description in following paragraphs.
6.4.5
Dimming feature overview
Further parameters are available, which are more closely related to the dimming function:
Type of electrical load (necessary to operate the dimming power stages properly and with optimum
regulation)
Dimming increase / decrease speed
Dimming value lower limit, to ensure that the “On” state has sufficient brightness
Brightness value at switch-on
Type of transition and dimming speed both at switch-on and switch-off.
